Finding God in the Psalms: Sing, pray, live
About this ebook
Tom Wright makes a passionate case for putting the Psalms back at the centre of Christian prayer and worship.
From the Introduction: 'I have decided, as a kind of thought-experiment, to order the material in three sections. The Psalms invite their singers, as they always have, to live at the crossroads of time, space and matter. This book explores what happens at this crossing-point.'
'Tom Wright is one of the great biblical commentators of our day, whose writing on the Bible will stand the test of time.'
Amy Boucher Pye in Woman Alive
'In this incisive and fresh look at the book of Psalms, Wright invites us to enter an alternative world-view that the Psalms embody. Let this book lead you to the Psalms - but beware, it's the wardrobe door into a new world order.'
Scot McKnight
'A characteristic blend of learning, personal insight and spiritual perception. This book will be of enormous help to Christians who want to know how to make fuller use of one of the greatest scriptural resources for prayer.'
Rowan Williams
'Truly masterful.'
